The latest in the controversy over the
Glenn bill in Georgia IS the suggestion OF
Gov Gordon that missionary societies
should withdraw their white teachers from
the colored schools. In this suggestion
can be clearly seen the real intent of tn
Glenn bill. The people of Georgia are,
when the facts are brought out, engaged
in an endeavor to insure the future SUI
premacv of the whites over the constantly
rising blacks. The surest means to ac-
complish this end is to destroy the educa-
tional institutions by such stabs in the
back as the Glenn bill the substitute reso-
luton and the suggestion of Gov. Gordon.
This method also offered less conflict with
the blacks and with outside powers. There
is however great drawback to the con-
summation of their designs; the blacks
haye the start on the whites and any blow
at them will be answered by blow which
though given as indirectly, will strike as
heavily. The whites are more dependent
upon the blacks than they are willing to
admit, but the degree of the dependence
would soon be shown by the passage of
any legislative act that would tend to in
terfere with the development of the negro.

Future of the National Banks.
1.-THE Indicator. |

Any one who has watched the statistics of
the national banks as exhibited in the state
ments of the Comptroller of the Currency for
a few years past must have been struck by
tie remarkable increase in the number of
new national banks that were being started,
in spite of some conditions growing daily less
favorable to such organizations In recent
conversation, Comptroller Trenholm, in COM
menting on this fact, said the system was
making its way very rapidly both in the West
and South. The extension of the national
banking system in these sections had been
greater in the last two years and half than
it has been in any part of country during any
equal period since the close of the war.
Within this time the number of banks in the
Southern States had increased 81 per cent,
and the number in Western States % per
cent. while the increase in the whole coun-
try north of the Chesapeake and east of the
Ohio has been less than 3 per cent.
The reason given for this was that it had
taken much longer time for agricultural
communities TO perceive the benefits of the
national system, and to avail themselves of
its advantages, than was requisite in the case
of the others. This is a patursl conclusion,
since rural communities are so much slower
and adverse to changes, especially as regards
banking methods, than are commercial and
manufacturing communities. But, on the
other hand, it is not fair to infer that the sgri-
cultural class will also be more unwilling
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1887-09-05

to part with the national banks when they
have become we'll accustomed to enjoying
the safety and other benefits derivable from
them, than even the large cities would be.
If this is is true, the outlook for the national
system is much better than people In this
part of the country have been wont to regard
it for some time past.
Il is very evident that the system is grow
ing in favor, and as the amount of govern
ment bonds available as basis for circula.
ton becomes more and more contracted the
agitation in favor of some substitute will
naturally grow stronger. This agitation will
be aided BY the voice of communities that
have hitherto been either neutral in the mat
ter or more or less opposed to the national
banks. The outlook is very favorable tc
the friends of the banks. and should
awaken them to the opportunity that appear;
to be az hand to modify the banking laws
with view to providing for the permanency
of the system.

from this dilemma. MIR. Randall's blow
under the fifth rib has a National i'm
portance, because it virtually indicts the
President either for breach of faith or In
territorial deception. If the platform OF
1884 was really 80 plain that it needed nc
explanation, then the President is now
trying to coerce his party into departure
from the policy to which he and the party
then solemnly pledged themselves. II II
was not in fact, so plain and unequivocal'
then the Presidents language in his letter
was an effort to delude voters. and to get
Office under false impressions. 1t boots
nothing that the President can reply thai
the Pennsylvania Democrats thus accuse
him. AID refuse to recommend his renomi-
nation, in the interest of Mr.. Randall as
candidate. The keen thrust at the Presi-
dents apparent insincerity or bad faith
will have its force.
Mr.. Scott gracefully yields, accepts the
craftsmanship of the Committee on Resolu-
tons, reports the very platform against
which he had vainly struggled, and is
graciously allowed to name the can
didate who is to have the empty
honor of heading a beaten ticket.
He is a good democrat; that is,
he does not allow his personal convictions
to disturb the harmony of his party in
Pennsylvania. Possibly he sincerely be-
lieves that the Administration has
administered the finances with ''apt
ability" as the convention resolved,
and "has strengthened the public
credit and thereby given us period of
great industrial and commercial pros
perity." The failure of the largest coal
operator in Pennsylvania last week, pre-
coded by the failure of an important iron
firm, and followed by the
failure OF noted coal firm at Boston,
needs to be reconciled with this declara-
ton. There are some business men who
consider that period OF wild and ruinous
speculation is not one Of great prosperity.
and that the imitation of currency which
stimulates such speculation to the utmost
was administration of the finances. N.

knitting the President.

Saving, cart thou in health, my broth
That is a condensed report of the proceed
ings of the Pennsylvania Democratic Con-
vention. Mr.. Randall had his own way.
He praised the President with great wealth
of words, but significantly refused the in
dorsement for denomination, which Mr..
Cleveland is securing through the "perni-
cious activity" of his ofiice-holders from
other State Conventions of his party. The
Presidents tariff reduction platform is not
only rejected. but ii is exposed to public
contempt by the adroit quotation of the
platform on which President Cleveland
was elected and his own letter of accept
ance, in which the dishonest evasion of
that platform was characterized thus 80
plain statement of the democratic faith
and the principles upon which the demo-
cratic party appeals tc the suffrages of
the people needs no supplement or expla-
nation" II it needed none then, when
Mr.. Cleveland himself was candidate,
certainly it needs none now when only
State officers are TO be elected. The OBJ
vious conclusion to which Mr.. Randall's
resolution points is that either the Presi-
dents attempt now to get approval of his
tariff policy from his party is an impudent
departure from the pledges on which he
was elected, or else his declaration when
he was candidate was insincere. and was
deliberately intended to deceive voters.

SON writes Clara LAMA from New York, ha:
been the introduction among the very rict
women of drinking glass especially designed
for the purpose of imbibing the particular
kind or kinds of mineral water that milady

yer chain and worn dangling from the
belt. The custom. which is a new one, is
naturally in danger of being carried to excess
and serving as an excuse for vulgar display.
This is true of all new fashions; but, on the
other hand, it cannot be denied that private
and elegant glass from which to quaff sulphur
or Hawthorne water is vastly more desirable
and agreeable than drinking the same liquids
out of a coarse tumbler that has been pressed
by the lips of thousands of the common herd.
And since the Imagination plays so large a
role in our actual experiences, it may be
questioned whether the obnoxious favors OF
mineral waters generally would not be mate
rally modified for the better by the pro-
longed use of these individual aesthetic
asses. We all know that cham
payne taken out of a drinking cup
or tooth mug becomes a. once in.
sipid and disagreesble. From logical stand
point, therefore, and in inverse ratio, even
sulphur waters might become palatable in
proportion to the magnificence of the drinking
glass. At Saratoga, a lady well known in
New York city has one of these glasses that
is marvel of art. 1t is made of the thinnest
and purest crystal In the shape of an ordinary
tumbler. Around the edge is double row
of turquoises set in gold rim, and below
this a number of tiny diamonds. The chain
that attaches this costly trifis to the wearer's
side is of alternating links of embossed golo
and deep blue enamel, also inlaid with jewels.
Strange to say, the lady is hardly satisfied
with it however, ami thinks of sending abroad
for one of yet greater price.

a surplus Of more than 100000 Since
then this money has all been squandered,
the State debt has been increased $4,000
900. and S2,000,000 are required for the

The movement inaugurated some time
since in favor OF a national convention of
the republican clubs of the country seems
to have met with wide favor, and it is now
announced that such convention will
be held-probably in New York city
shortly after the November elections. Such
a convention may be most useful affair
1t may be the means of arousing enthu
siasm; of melting aggressive activity; of
sharply defining the issues which must
enter into the next national campaign of
promoting these essential factors of sue
cessfu campaign work harmony and good
fellowship, but it is possible that such
a convention may attempt too much, and
the Boston Traveller suggests that 1t will
be well to remember that the nomination
of presidential candidate is the peculiar
work OF convention differently consti-
tuted which is to be held later also that it
will not be a good thing for the suspicio n
to arise that the proposed convention of
clubs is to be held in the interest, or for
the promotion OF the candidacy, of any
presidential aspirant. In such case it
would he well tor each club to simply
flock alone by itself.
